Our first egg on the live camera at Knepp Wilding hatched this morning! Parent storks Ania and Bartek have been keeping the new chick and remaining eggs safe and warm today. Watch them live on our YouTube channel:

So excited to share our brand new live camera on one of the stork nests at Knepp. Just in time for Mother's Day, the first egg was laid last night!

This breeding season, we're hoping to share the wonders of stork development. Help us reach our £4000 goal for a live camera at Knepp! Every donation counts.

Fantastic day at Knepp with some amazing volunteers. Huge efforts in coppicing for stork nesting material which is especially crucial for our non-flying storks in the predator-proof enclosure. Fingers crossed for a successful breeding season and huge thanks to all involved

Many of our storks have now migrated but some still remain in Sussex, a small group has been seen foraging in fields around the River Rother recently. Thanks to everyone for ongoing sightings and wonderful photographs! 📷Thanks to Alastair Lloyd

Thank you to everyone who has submitted a sighting recently. We have had several reports of a group of around 30 storks foraging in fields around Sandwich, Kent, including 3 of our satellite tagged young from this year.

It's been a fantastic season for the storks and we are looking forward to updating everyone on progress. We have had 26 wild chicks fledge at Knepp, 33 juveniles from the Cotswold Wildlife Park released at Knepp and 8 satellite tags deployed on the young. Updates to follow!

Join us on an aerial journey over some of the stork nests at Knepp, giving us a respectable bird’s-eye view of the contents of the nests across the rewilding project. Collecting data through the season helps document breeding activity and informs us of nest success rates.

@LucyNeate @KneppWilding @KneppWildlandFd @CotsWildTweets @RoyDennisWF She most certainly is! She's the left-hand bird in the first photo, and has paired up with GB9A for the second year running😁🤞

Some of our storks have been enjoying the winter sun in France and Spain, but only time will tell if they decide to head back north this year! #whitestork #migration #satellitetracking #birdringing
Unlike Marge the white stork that spent her winters in Morocco, some of the @projectstorks released in 2022 spent their winter in Spain and others in France. Will they travel back this Spring? @ueaenv @ueaceec
